  1. Jozy had a decent game. I’m very happy seeing him improve week after week. 20yrs old and playing in the best league in the world, you have my respect.

    It’s sad to hear the Jozy bashing, it shows lack of knowledge of the game.

    I give him a B- for todays performance. Considering he has below average midfielders.

  2. could not agree more. The Drogba comparisons are being made on numerous sites. I don’t think they are quite the same player, but the idea that it takes a while for a young forward to develop, i believe is the point being made.

    I hope he stays in ther EPL post WC, Everton?

  3. Basketball trains mostly fast-twitch muscles (jumping, sprinting) so I would have to assume his level of endurance is pretty low.

  4. On Jozy’s lack of goal scoring? On my intermittent feed Jozy didn’t take one shot on goal. So for today, no goals seems quite appropriate. He did make some nice passes in attack which his teammates squandered 100%, which explains no assists.
